OTAHUHU also known in the streets as "OTABLUE".. The name actually takes after the amount of Patched and Street Gangmembers there are in this particular hood
I doubt that macrons on Otahuhu are necessary throughout the article. I suggest starting the article with the usual spelling "Otahuhu" then an open parenthesis "(" then the linguistic pronunciation, then the "Maori:" language tag link then the "Ōtāhuhu" then a close parenthesis ")". The article would then avoid misconceptions about how the name is spelled and pronounced in everyday use, and connect better to its derivation. 68.40.122.133 ( talk) 11:34, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
How are there any misconceptions on its spelling? It is spelt Ōtāhuhu. If the "every day use" is spelled and pronounced differently, it's wrong. It doesn't matter if it's a common mistake, it's still a mistake.
